I agree that Limone is lemon, but I think Citron is likley to be Citron -
another member of the citrus family.  The fruit is pale green, about the
size and shape of an avacodo but with *very* thick citrus skin (almost the
entire fruit). The candied peel/fruit is still used in many German and
Italian recipies - I buy it from the deli. It has a great taste, similar to
but distinct from candied lemon peel.
